Default Re: Should banned user mods/maps/etc be deleted from these boards?

The poll is a tad inflammatory, eh? Consider the last option in the poll. Compared to most forums the banhammer rarely comes out. In eleven years I'm betting we could count on one and a half hands how many folks had to be banned (not talking about spammers of course), and definitely not because of voting in a poll.

The first two options are also problematic. Shrapnel doesn't profit from the mods, the community does. When someone purchases Dom3 they purchase the vanilla game. It's up to them to discover and use the mods. Likewise I don't think anyone from Shrapnel has ever said, "Ha! You fools, by uploading your maps you've played right into our hands. We own them now!" so the "rationale" behind voting "No" is way off the mark.

Gotta say sorta surprised to see the situation rear up again.
